Adaptive mesh refinement and domain decomposition: A framework to study multi-physical and multi-scale phenomena. first application to reacting gas flows

Abstract

The aim of this work is to extend the Adaptive Mesh Refinement (AMR) technique . AMR is an ideal platform for coupling different discretisations and models, as each grid level can use a different solver. Compact conditions have to be defined and these are problems which are at the core of Domain Decomposition methods. An application to a planar shock interacting with a circular diffusion H2-air flame is presented. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2006.
